Methods and systems of characterizing and counting microbiological colonies
Abstract
Described herein are methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable media to non-destructively acquire three-dimensional profiles of cellular microbiological samples growing on the surface of a solid growth medium. Acquisitions can be performed by an optical microscope that includes a vertical scanning interferometer. The three-dimensional profiles can enable measurement of sample parameters of microcolonies, which can be made of microbial colony forming units. The methods and systems enable early and rapid detection and quantification of microbes.
